We don't like to see generalizations about Latinas, Colombianas, Brazilians, agency girls etc.

The very same people against that, will quickly generalize that American Women are, "cold, materialistic, femi-nazis", or that a woman you meet in a club dancing has questionable morals.

It comes down to guys not liking to see generalizations about their women, but it being fine to generalize others.

... some are and some aren't. I have a number of Mexican women working for me. Two come to mind, one a 27 year old virgin, has been on a number of dates but isn't satisfied with what she's found so far and is currently dating a doctor. They go to church and hold hands, but I think that's about as physical as they get. Another is 29, has 7 kids from 4 different men, the oldest being 15 years old - she's still not married but lives with the father of her latest baby. Which characterizes Mexicanas? Neither and both.

The reason most of us search overseas is because we haven't found anyone here. Few guys here would say there are zero women in the US that are suitable for us. Almost everyone on these boards say there are no, suitable, AVAILABLE women for them here in the US. That was certainly my case.

If you're looking for someone you can sleep with, you'll be able to find her in Columbia, the Philippines, Russia, France, Italy, the US or anywhere else. If that's important to you, fine. Remmeber, though, the character of women who'll sleep with you after getting to know you for a short time, may not be what you're looking for in a lifelong partner and mother to your children.

It's been my experience if you love someone, sexual compatability will result, because you'll do whatever it takes to make each other happy. Finding sexual compatability as a pre-requisite to love, seems to me like putting the cart before the horse. Don't get me wrong, when I was young and single I liked getting laid as much as the next guy, but now that I'm an old married fart, I have come to realize some of my earlier beliefs were just so much fantasy.

Just my 2 cents worth.

We get this sort of thing a lot over at the Russian board, where people ask questions that force one to make generalizations when it's not possible. "Do Russian women like/dislike such and such..." Some do, some don't. Every woman is different, and yet women are women all over the world. Know this before you embark on any endeavor.

Each woman and couple is different.  The answer to whether a Colombian woman will sleep with you prior to marriage or not is easy-  Some will, some won't.  You'll have to take that up with whatever lady you meet.

Actually, in English it's Columbian
in Spanish it's either Colombiana, or una mujer de Colombia.
Never heard of C-O-L-O-M-B-I-A-N.

I think the fact that we have some cities named Columbia throws people.  Every news article I've read in English spells the country name Colombia, and it's natives as Colombian.  Y no estuvé escribiendo español.

Press at the same time the key Alt (left bottom of your keyboard) + the numbers that are on the right of your keyboard as follow:

Alt + 160 = á
Alt + 161 = í
Alt + 162 = ó
Alt + 163 = ú
Alt + 130 = é
Alt + 164 = ñ
Alt + 165 = Ñ

After you press the Alt and type the numbers at the same time as indicated above release the key Alt and the font with the accent will show up.

Go to your Control Panel, select keyboards, and if your ´puter is new enough you should be able to add a Spanish keyboard. As far as knowing the layout of the board, you can either buy a Spanish keyboard, or use trial and error.

what I did was as you say, go into control panel and get to keyboard, then select Internatinal - US from the menu.  It is really easy to use now.

People really interested should go to www.studyspanish.com and it will run you through it step by step and also tell about using the U.S. - International keyboard.  Es muy facil después.

¡Disfruten!

Here's what I did (there's probablbly an easier way, but...)
Find some large file full of random stuff, say a jpg or gif. Make a copy of it under the name Spanish.txt. Open it with word pad, now delete everything except the á é í ñ ó ú ¿ ¡  Á À Â Ã Ä Å Æ Ç É È Ê Í Ñ Ó Ò Ô Õ Ö Ø Ú Ù Ý Ÿ
á à â ã ä å æ ç é è ê ë í ì ï ñ ó ò ô õ ö ø ú ù ü ý ÿ
¿ ¡

and save it. Now, when you want to write in Spanish, copy this file into the beginning of your document and when you need one of these characters, use the copy and paste to copy it from the front of the file to where it is needed, finaly, when you message is about ready to send/save, cut the block of characters out and you're done.

Like I said, probably an easier way. And you don't have to open a jpg now, you should be able to cut and paste them from this message.
